@BarleyPlanet Hi, RGT Planet has been grown in Australia for several years and is best adapted to the higher yield environments (in an Australian context, that is greater than 4t/ha). In the Australian context, the variety would not be considered as drought resilient.

Interesting RGT Planet has drought resilience. Is that why it has been so widely adopted. Wonder where it gets the character from? Does the translocation play a role?

@KithsiriJayase3 @InterGrain1 @DPIRDWA @theGRDC Thanks Kith, but something for you to watch: Neo is excellent for SFNB and PM, good for NFNB but is leaf rust susceptible (not bad, but it is susceptible) ... it's one weakness ... please manage.

@InterGrain1 @DPIRDWA @theGRDC @DavidBMoody I am glad to hear New-Neo got good resistance profile. Congratulations InterGrain Team😀

Neo🏆 IGB22102T is finally named! We are thrilled to introduce the next game-changer for barley growers. With the plot-yield record, exceptional yield potential, disease resistance & malting characteristics, Neo offers a significant step-change for growers in medium-high rainfall regions.

@PaulRundle82 @InterGrain1 @DPIRDWA @theGRDC It is a RGT Planet derivative, so similar in some ways eg growing season length, but shorter, hence higher harvest index, meaning slightly less straw and improved lodging tolerance @InterGrain1

@InterGrain1 @DPIRDWA @theGRDC @DavidBMoody What is the parentage does it produce lots of straw

Sensational performance from "The One" = IGB22102T ... coming soon to Australian growers from @InterGrain1 🍻

#MaximusCL looking great at Northam!

@cutabove77 @strathalbyncc Good looking deck. I still might be able to score a run on that.

We would be more than happy to host the 5th #Ashes test match at @strathalbyncc. Our sight screens would need to be made red ball friendly but that can be arranged #Ashes2021 🏏

@DMAg_consultant @nullaboo48 @InterGrain1 We had quite severe brackling at a WA trial site. Maximus was the standout variety in terms of brackling tolerance/resistance. Spartacus and La Trobe were bad but there were others that were worse! 😄

@nullaboo48 Maximus been handling brackling better than Spartacus @InterGrain1 ?

A few RWA moving into our resistance/seed dressing trial at Coomalbidgup. Testing out how good the resistance in IGB1954 really is. Stay posted. Thanks Svet Micic and Luke Marquis for your support. @InterGrain1

Launching COMMODUS CL (IGB1908), our newest IMI barley! Agronomically similar to Compass and well suited to medium-low rainfall environments, it’s worth a look!

A very visible difference! #MaximusCL (L) vs #SpartacusCL (R) side by side in the paddock - Horsham. #MaximusCL radiantly showing its anthocyanin expression. #bankmanagershour

#Maximusbarley looking beautiful near North Star! Fingers crossed for a smooth harvest 👌

The Maximus CL Coopers Pale Ale has arrived! Long live the Gladiators! @InterGrain1

@joshreichstein @InterGrain1 @coopersbrewery @TressWalmsley And when is the beer available for drinking? 🍺

Some days working for @InterGrain1 are tougher than others! @coopersbrewery Pale Ale brewed with Maximus CL barley grown by our SA & Victorian market development growers. Maximus CL is available for planting in 2021 from your local reseller

@chriswalsh008 @mrlange81 @agrobaz Any interest in RWA resistance in barley? See InterGrain's IGB1954 in NVT. La Trobe type with La Trobe performance.

@mrlange81 @agrobaz The tolerance comes from a couple of proteins which can fight the issues caused by RWA. I think the gene is Dn-1 - not something wide spread in Aust stock but maybe you are seeing low level tolerance?? Hoping these new lines can offer help 💪

🌾 Has anyone got RWA 🐛 infections in their cereals? If so is there more damage in certain varieties than others? We certainly see more damage in the poorer soils.

@iank1963 Do you want resistant varieties or can it be easily managed? What options to you have if imidacloprid is banned in Australia?

Russian Wheat Aphid in early may sown barley , Spartacus, widespread on gray ground half, red sand not so, found south of Pine Point, heads up everyone their back.👍🙁

@brill_ag Great work Rowan! Keep it going!

After 12 years via Trangie, Coonamble then Wagga, I finish up with NSW DPI today. Thanks to all who gave me a go, even though I was relatively unqualified and inexperienced. Looking forward to more days at the farm, some private agronomy work and keeping in the research game.
